Isolates an object or group of objects in your model for closer viewing or more detailed work. If you have already selected the objects when you click Clip by Object , the clipped objects immediately appear in the active view. The clipping planes are positioned according to the active coordinate system, rather than the global coordinate system. Objects connected to a rotated coordinate system are clipped according to the global coordinate system. To restore the view, click Clear Clipping .
Below is a selected pump before clipping.
After clipping, only object bounded by the selected objects, in this case the pump, display in the active view. You can click Select View on the Clip by Object ribbon to apply the clipping to additional views.
